Orphaning does not mean that a package is unmaintainable. As I've stated elsewhere I will continue to be willing to help, and that includes if it doesn't get adopted, which is far preferable than the dialog seen here so far. It is up for adoption because I don't want to be the only one responsible anymore. Best wishes, Mike
